Asher and Beshka pretty much have the most ‘laid back’ story and theirs is also where the Game of Thrones writers took the most liberty. In episode 2 each story has a slightly different approach in terms of tone and goals. Gared joins the Night’s Watch where he ends up having a bad time, with instructors out to get him and bullies wanting to punch him for lunch money. Who knew being responsible for changing ones bed pan could be such a demanding job politically.įinally there’s Gared, squire of House Forrester sent off to The Wall for his own protection (and as part of a secret mission). Hanging out in King’s Landing, everyone seems to want something of the surprisingly nondescript handmaiden, with this one and that one and which one often asking her to prove their loyalty to them. Asher and Beshka are having a bad time, taking on a job that quickly goes south and results in them becoming Yunkai’s most wanted. Introduce alongside Asher is his soul sister Beshka, a badass merc who doesn’t afraid of anything. So the reader isn’t confused, there is no interaction with the Queen of Dragons quite yet, you’re more the ant scrambling for the scraps of her sugary feast. As such he’s seeing many of the “after effects” of Queen Daenerys’ occupation and trying to capitalize off her war efforts as a sellsword.

The Forrester’s second oldest son, Asher, is our connection to Essos. Rodrik is having a bad time, having suffered massive injuries in the War of Five Kings, he must prove to his house and his enemies that he is more than just a cripple and capable of becoming a strong lord. Rodrik, second eldest of House Forrester, attempts to bring the Northern house back to order while he also feuds with the McCoys to his family’s Hatfields, a house named Whitehill. It still feels very much like we’re in the warmup, but it does shake things up a bit and lands one character in each of Game of Throne’s major political spheres. While Episode 1 was fairly engaging in its own right, it felt very much like an HBO episode 1, an appetite teasing iceberg lettuce salad that leaves you hungry for the meat of the meal.Įpisode 2 is also very true to HBO’s formula. If you’ve played Episode 1, you know it ends with a death in the Forrester family that has some heavy implications as to the future and safety of the House. Guess which season Telltale’s game falls in line with? Yep. The Forresters were once allies to House Stark which, is a pretty bad thing to be as of season 4 of Game of Thrones. Three siblings and their pal that have seen better times. We continue to follow the tale of Asher, Mira, Rodrick and Gared. Just as the season 5 premiere of HBO’s hit television series lands, we’re greeted with the official midway point of Telltale’s Game of Thrones.
